Georgia has their fair share of tornadoes. Not nearly as many as areas in the plains/midwest, but there are almost always several days out of each year in which a few tornadoes occur in the State of Georgia. They can happen anytime of year, but mostly they occur during the spring and fall. The only time they usually occur during the summer is when they are on the northeast side of a tropical system.

Tornadoes are most common in Georgia. However, there is a fault system near the border of Arkansas and Tennessee that has created stronger earthquakes than any of the earthquakes in the history of California.

Yes. There are tornadoes in Georgia every year, and there will continue to be tornadoes there in the future. However, there is no way of predicting where or when they will occur.

No. Although it has a fairly high incidence of tornadoes, Georgia is quite far from Tornado Alley, which extends from Texas to North Dakota and Iowa.

Yes. Georgia has been hit by tornadoes, hurricanes, floods, and severe thunderstorms. Minor earthquakes can occur there, but earthquakes are not weather.
